Glimmer of Good

Now that your rose is in bloom
The light hits the gloom on the grave

Gotta admit that I never expected the bank bailout bill to be voted down. In this battle between liberty and socialism, score one for the freedom fighters.

Of course, this may be a temporary respite in light of the Dow's record 778 point slide after the thumbs down vote. Pundits are most certainly screaming that the market melt is proof positive that we need to step in. Indeed, theory suggests that the odds favor the interventionists.

However temporary, I'm relishing in some sense that our founding ideals haven't totally left the building.
